Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Prepare the chicken: Clean the chicken breasts, cut them into smaller pieces or strips, season with your favorite chicken seasoning, and let them marinate for 10 minutes.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the chicken pieces on both sides for about 10–12 minutes, until they are golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature about 75°C). Transfer to a plate and let cool.
  3. Prepare the salad: Wash the cucumbers and slice them into thin slices or half-moons. Peel the shallot and chop it finely. Chop the spring onion into thin rings.
  4. Prepare the sauce: In a bowl, mix together the peanut butter, soy sauce, agave syrup, lime juice, chili oil, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Stir vigorously until the sauce is smooth (you can add a little water if it’s too thick).
  5. In a large bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers, shallots, and spring onions. Add the fried chicken, cut into strips.
  6. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently so the ingredients are evenly coated. Serve immediately; optionally, sprinkle with additional sesame seeds.
